BuffaloBaumer Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Can we just put that in the category of ...."figures". So really what the heck are they going to do if Luck does not come out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Got_Wood Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 You should look up Da'Quan Bowers, Marcell Dareus, Nick Fairley, and Adrian Clayborn. Big time prospects on the defensive side of the ball, and they would help this team out in a BIG way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve O Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Can we just put that in the category of ...."figures". So really what the heck are they going to do if Luck does not come out? If memory serves Suh wasn't a household name until mid November last year. But I get your point. If Luck doesn't come out no one is worth what the # 1 pick will cost unless someone emerges soon.

Astrobot Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Good News---According to our Big Board, the #2 player could be a major need for the Bills. So would player #3, #5, and #7. We can afford to improve over the coming weeks and still draft some impressive players. As far as Carolina goes (and the absolutely horrific schedule they have here on out), they need more than just a QB---such as another feature WR, a 4-3DT, and a CB pretty early in free agency and the draft. If the Panthers end up with the first pick, I wouldn't be surprised if they took Paea, Fairley or Prince Amukamara. AJ Green would be another possibility for them. They may be more interested in acquiring a vet quarterback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Can we just put that in the category of ...."figures". So really what the heck are they going to do if Luck does not come out? Are you serious? You need to dig a little in the draft sites like Drafttek. There are plenty of front 7 guys in the first 3 rounds that will have an impact. What we need are guys in the trenches, pass rushers and a good TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure there ARE plenty of good front 7 guys but my point is that I have not heard anything along the likes of a #1 overall pick...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoner7 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I think what he is saying is that there is no cleaer cut top talent. Last year it was Suh hands down from day 1 (to the poster that said he was unknown until Nov. - He was the #1 or #2 rated Jr by the National the year before) Joe Thomas and Calvin Johnson were elite top prospects in 2007, Jake Long was the clear cut stud in 2008. This year there are 3-4 OTs that are being touted as good by different sources, but none is that great. There is more talent along the DL but not 1 clear cut top guy that everyone can agree on, I noticed that myself and am a little upset about it.

tennesseeboy Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 trading away number one pick for midround and a second round or two might not be a bad idea for a rebuilding team with as many needs as we have if there isn't a franchise style (Luck) player available. I agree that the cream will probably rise to the top in the next month or in the bowl games, but we should not pooh-pooh the trade down option out of hand given our needs.

bisonbrigade Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I'd be happy with either, Luck, Quinn, or Clayborn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBaumer Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 I also don't like all these media people comparing Mallett to a Ryan Leaf type of player. If LucK does not come out and there are question marks on Mallett, this could very well turn out to be the worst draft in a long time to have the #1 pick - this city is definitely cursed.....

If Luck doesn't come out I would say trade down and stock up picks... although I worry about Nix just drafting a bunch of bad players... and wasting tons of picks.

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Ummmm....we're not getting the #1 pick. We're not? Find the two wins it'll take to get out of that pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wagon Circler Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 This guy Bowers is 6'4" 280, fast as hell and has 14 1/2 sacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lets_go_bills Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Quinn would be on the top of most boards if he were not inelligible for taking gifts. Bowers was the #1 prospect coming out of high school and now he'll be a top prospect coming out of college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
